Actress Wendy Craig paid a visit to Warwick to open the Emscote Lawn School Elizabethan
Actress Wendy Craig paid a visit to Warwick to open the Emscote Lawn School Elizabethan Fair. Miss Craig said: " The education of our children is one of the most vital matters in the world today. We must preserve a choice of school in order to cater for every kind of child. We don t want to produce children like cars from an assembly line, lacking individual flair." Miss Craig, star of the TV series, " Not in Front of the Children, " arrived from her mothers home in Kenilworth by an " Elizabethan horse-drawn coach" re-constructed by boys at the school. A ducking stool, quintain(jousting), stocks, madrigals, a pig roast, archery, falconry and the school staff and pupils in full Elizabethan costume provided the period flavour.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Actress Wendy Craig graces the town of Warwick with her presence as she opens the Emscote Lawn School Elizabethan Fair. Known for her role in the popular TV series "Not in Front of the Children". Miss Craig emphasizes the importance of education and individuality in children. She believes that preserving a variety of school choices is crucial to cater to every child's unique needs, rather than producing uniform individuals lacking personal flair. Arriving from her mother's home in Kenilworth, Miss Craig makes a grand entrance on an "Elizabethan horse-drawn coach" meticulously reconstructed by talented boys at the school. The fair exudes an authentic Elizabethan atmosphere, complete with traditional activities such as ducking stool, quintain (jousting), stocks, madrigals, pig roast, archery, falconry - all enjoyed by both staff and pupils dressed impeccably in full Elizabethan costumes. This photograph captures not only Miss Craig's visit but also serves as a testament to the significance placed on education during this era. It reminds us that providing diverse educational opportunities is essential for nurturing well-rounded individuals who can contribute their own unique talents and perspectives to society. As we look back at this momentous occasion from June 27th, 1970 through Memory Lane Prints' lens, we are reminded of how far we have come while cherishing timeless values that continue to shape our world today.
